Portrait in paper

He was a veteran.

Note: United States Patent 4319394 Abstract: Apparatus for recovering metal from an insulated wire includes a feeding assembly leading to a cutting assembly. The cutting assembly forces the cut wire into a hammer assembly where the cut wire is hammered and separated from the insulation. The insulation is separated from the cut wire by a vacuum device. The cut wire is recovered and packaged for suitable shipment. Note: Benson Machine Works is a locally owned and operated metal working facility, with over 60 years of experience. These years have brought us from the anvil and the drafting board, to total 3-D "Art to Part".--company website
